   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Medical, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

scampi

 or Dublin Bay prawn or Norway lobster

Edible lobster (Nephrops norvegicus), widespread in the Mediterranean and northeastern Atlantic. It is sold as a delicacy over much of its range. Scampi live in burrows on soft sea bottoms at depths of 33 to 820 ft (10–250 m). They grow to about 8 in. (200 mm) long and weigh about 7 oz (200 g). The slender claws may be almost as long as the body. Most scampi are trawled, but some are caught in baited lobster pots.

The Sea Fish Industry Authority, "the UK's only cross-industry seafood body", says that the most fuel-intensive fishing methods are beam trawling (which typically lands flatfish such as plaice, sole and megrim), mechanical dredging (scallops and clams), demersal trawling (whitefish such as cod, haddock and monkfish), nephrops trawling (langoustine, Norway lobster and prawns) and creel and pots (lobster, crabs and conger eel).
The menu included petit fours of king crab from Franz Raneburger, and Norway lobster on pineapple-paprika chutney with Tahiti vanilla from Thomas Kammeier.
Then a normally composed of seafood (prawns, Norway lobsters, etc) dish is served and after a meat dish.
